Premises:
Two people's paths cross at the threshold of death.
One of those people is a general all-around baddie, in one way or another a despicable person. Well, bad enough to be sentenced to an eternity of fire and brimstone, at any rate. The other person is a general all-around goodie, an innocent kid, promised eternal happiness after an untimely death. (Only the good, you know.) Both on the verge of the abyss. After the baddie's soul departs, said baddie quickly realizes what is going on, and where said soul is going to end up. So, thinking fast, the baddie grabs another soul, that of the goodie, which is just clinging on to life. The baddie throws the goodie onto the path to fire and brimstone, and the poor goodie doesn't know what happened.
So now the goodie's in Hell, and the baddie's in the goodie's body.
Necessary characters:
Baddie:
Name: can be male or female
Age: I'd prefer over 18
Bio: How they lived, died, and got sentenced to Hell
Appearance: can be pic, but only if you absolutely must
~~Weapons/Skills?: optional, and remember, you don't have your magnum anymore, you left your body behind
Anything else?:
Goodie:
Name: again, male or female
Age: between six and thirteen, please
Bio:
Appearance:
Anything else?:
Goodie's Mom, Dad, Older Sibling, Older Friend, Whatever:
Someone needs to have been with Goodie when they died. I was thinking hospital, myself, but go along with what the Goodie says.
Name:
Age: it's best if they can drive
Bio:
Appearance:
Relation to Goodie:
Other people would be good, people who know Goodie and Baddie, and anyone else who may be involved. You can be everything from the Baddie's girl-/boyfriend to the Goodie's guardian angel to a cop in a K9 unit. Get creative.
Awaiting someone to fill my two needed positions before I start.
Oh, yeah, I'll be playing Satan. He's got to help Goodie get back where he or she belongs, because if he doesn't, he's going to get in trouble with The Big Man Upstairs. So now he has to ferry this kid around until he or she gets squared away and in the right place. Whoever's the Goodie should run into Beelzebub first, but he won't be around throughout the whole thing, unless someone wants to play as him...
Right, forgot the rules:
1. I am God in this RP. (Even though I'm playing the Devil. No, it's not ironic. I'll say what's ironic and what's not around here, thank you very much.) What I say goes.
2. I reserve the right to kick you out, although I will usually give a good reason.
3. Posts don't have to be long but they have to be thorough, and give other characters enough room to react. This is not a combat-centered RP, so instakill and instamiss will not be a problem, but your character doesn't have to constantly be one-upping the other characters.
4. If your character doesn't swear a lot, they shouldn't start dropping F when they get ticked off. They would probably use milder language, no matter how fitting the situation is. If your character swears a lot, they should use mild language in their usual speech, only going to F and other language when the situation warrants. If your character is constantly spouting off the foulest language they can think of, please censor yourself.
5. No Mary Janes.
6. Absolutely NO first person. And you must refer to your character by name at some point.
7. More rules will be added as events warrant.
I will require a writing sample from applicants who I have never RPed with before, and I will judge an applicant's skills from this, or from past RPs.
If I say your character is a Mary Jane, they're a Mary Jane.
